Evolution of vertebrate neuropeptides.

Brain research bulletin - 1 Aug 2001

Holmgren S, Jensen J

Abstract excerpt

This review describes some of the most typical features in the evolution of neuropeptides. Neuropeptides are synthesized like other polypeptides and proteins, with an amino acid sequence determined by the DNA sequence of the corresponding gene. Mutations of bases in the coding regions of the DNA lead to changes in amino acid sequence, and explain the differences in amino acid sequence of a certain neuropeptide in...
